Windows Server 2008 R2 DataCenter server running Exchange 2010 SP3 generates Schannel Event 36887 - The following fatal error was received:20

Our Exchange server is throwing the above mentioned error continuously without a time pattern.  Often we receive information entries Event ID:7036)  telling us the WinHTTP Web Auto-Discovery Service entered a stopped  (or running) state but not always.
I've seen many articles on the error but many recommend suppressing the error which I'd prefer not to.

Our Exchange Server seems to be running fine but I'd like to find out the root cause that's generating this error.
Thanks in Advance

I found this as a resolution:

nltest  /SC_QUERY:domainname
nltest  /SC_reset:domainname /server:dcname
netdom reset hostname /domain:domainname /server:dcname
